I think the message they were going for got across in a very blatant but disturbing way. people in power are greedy and will only work for themselves while belittling those who aren’t, and that the advent of social media causes a mob mentality to believe and follow whatever is trending, and behave naively as if the influencers are more credible than somebody who knows and is certified in what they’re talking about. I think the movie did a good job at showing how our modern society would react if something like an extinction level event is revealed, and hopefully world leaders would act like world leaders about it and not like how the president/people in power in the movie reacted

You fucked up number of subscriber line, the x-axis is different for the two informations you are plotting, the subs number is from 2013 to 2023. Instead of plotting data from mid 2018 to 2023 for that you plotted what would have been the line for 2013 to 2023 over the other graph.

Didn't it look like an obvious mistake that the graph showed netflix 8x their subs in less than 5 year?

P.s. Now that I look at it better actually also the dots are fucked up, places around 20M higher than they should be (i guess prolly a % error), anyway means you fucked up Y axis too

Fun fact: a vpn to your house keeps the local IP block with Netflix's new system intact for anyone that wants to watch on the go (or lives in a different place cough cough) Works by looking like you live there, just connect in every 3 weeks and you are golden. Even figuring that out I still cancelled, such a bad service now. Was with them since they rented DVDs even piloted the PS3 console app and wrote letters detailing my expertise for it. The company went to crap, unable to retain anything and quality of their series declined to the point I said goodbye.

Monthly cost keep going up for less content and I'm not going to pay a fortune for 4k, no thank you! Not as bad as Hulu, that place is a joke, their CDNs are hot garbage. HBO, Prime and Disney is pretty much it and a month a year for the others if I need to see something. Disney may be moving to 1-2 months a year soon.
